Fall/Halloween 2010

Okay, now that I've waited SO long to update my blog, the last almost 5 months have kind of blended into one day (so it seems)! The first few months of Braeden's life, Kylee became a Daddy's girl and I felt like THE GUILTIEST Mom in the whole entire world! I had so many mixed emotions when we started getting into "real" life w/our new Little Man! I was SO very happy to have him in our home safe and sound, yet I felt so guilty not being able to participate in the things with Kylee that I always had been able too. For the past almost 7 years of my life Kylee has been my world - I've been able to do practically everything with her and now it had all come to a fast hault! I missed out on so much when we brought Braeden home, yet I was able to bond w/my Little Man and wouldn't trade it for anything in the whole world (see - mixed emotions - ha ha)! Now that I look back - what a blessing! I was able to bond and get to know our new little guy while Brett was able to become closer w/Kylee and get to participate in those things that he normally would not have been able too!

So, here's a run down on the pics below:

Brett took Kylee on a Daddy Daughter date to Gardner Village to see the witches and they had so much fun - THEN Kylee wanted us to all go back so we took Braeden on our first real outting back to Gardner Village! I think he enjoyed it just as much as we did!

Brett and Kylee went on the annual neighborhood family home evening to the corn maze and then to get yogurt (I SOOO wanted to go, but it was way to cold for Braeden so I stayed home and cleaned instead - sigh)! Kylee said she had so much fun answering all the questions and trying to find her way out w/all her friends!

Then came the week long Halloween celebration (just thinking about it makes me tired all over again)! Between family parties, neighbor parties, school parties and the actual day - this was one of THE longest weeks ever! Ha ha! Kylee had so much fun dressing up as the "Bloodstone Vampiress" and Little Man wore a cute Halloween shirt that Kris got him! All in all - it was fun but so very tiring (the last pic of Kylee speaks for itself)!

OH - and we can't forget Brett's turkey! Yay!! We got it back and it looks SO beautiful (can you sense the sarcasm here?)! But in all honesty, Brett was so excited to get it back - just hope it gets to stay in the garage ;)

AND - now I just realized these are all going from end to beginning (the pics anyway) and I am too tired to fix them, so, just look at the pics from the bottom up! He he!
